[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why isn’t he interested in date nights? Has he given you a reason?

DW and I do date night once a week, lunch date at least once a week, and couples weekend roughly every 6 weeks.

It isn’t hard and we both enjoy it. [/quote]

This is not the norm for most couples.  Add in small kids, family who lives far from home, two jobs, and lack of resources.  So while this works for you, please realize it is unrealistic for most couples to get away every 6 weeks.[/quote]

DP here and we do weekly date night. We often don't go out of the house: we stay in and do something special after the kids go to bed. Sometimes we bake a dessert together, or get delivery and a movie.

We did weekly scheduled checkins for a while after seeing a counselor; we have let those drop off but we still have the vocabulary and framework for scheduling one.  We go away overnight when grandparents come to visit us, which is about three nights a year.  Lunch dates are a great idea, not sure we can make that work but maybe.[/quote]
